1970 Medium red color and a mild browning of the edges with a nice light slightly baked fruit nose, a medium body that is smooth without much complexity and a full length aftertaste. What a bargain since after taxes it only cost slightly more than $5.00 probably in 1972 or 1973.

Passable. When in France,.....
Very acidic. Not like the rich Merlots of California and Italy.

Juicy red fruit, not as good as the label says it is, but not many wines are.
